OK, looks like my last patch was too controversial and got shoved into the Silently Ignore zone....

Here's the same patch, but split into two parts: Linaniil's lore change, and everything else.

Sandqueen Heart

In sandworm-lair/objects.lua, line 42:
game.logPlayer(who, "#00FFFF#You consume the heart and feel the knowledge of this very old creature fills you!")
should be
game.logPlayer(who, "#00FFFF#You consume the heart and feel the knowledge of this very old creature fill you!")
or alternatively
game.logPlayer(who, "#00FFFF#You consume the heart and feel the knowledge of this very old creature filling you!")
or
game.logPlayer(who, "#00FFFF#You consume the heart and feel how the knowledge of this very old creature fills you!")
Ghoul never existed, this never happened!

In the file modules/tome/class/interface/TooltipsData.lua, one reads the following rather interesting description of Willpower:

Code: Select all

Willpower defines your character's ability to concentrate. It increases your mana, stamina and psi capacity, and your chance to your chance to save against magical and mental effects.
Perhaps this should read:

Code: Select all

Willpower defines your character's ability to concentrate. It increases your mana, stamina, psi capacity, and your chance to save against magical and mental effects.

(Hope this doesn't count as double posting since I posted my last message a while ago).

"nogos Lair" should probably be "Norgos' Lair".

"Madness of the ages" should probably be "Madness of the Ages".

4 more typos to report:

I see that you've fixed one instance of the typo "norgos lair" -- thanks! Unfortunately, this typo shows up in two more places:

1) In line 68 of the file data/maps/wilderness/eyal.lua: "Passageway into Norgos lair" should be changed to "Passageway into Norgos' Lair".

2) In line 28 of the file data/quests/start-thaloren.lua: "You must explore norgos lair." should be changed to "You must explore Norgos' Lair."


3) On a related note, the text in data/texts/intro-thaloren.lua is a bit messed up, especially with regards to capitalization. Lines 27-30 currently reads:

Code: Select all

You have come to the western side of the thaloren forest, to the lair of norgos. Norgos always was an ally of the thaloren, protecting the western border, but as of late he has grown corrupt and started attacking even thaloren.
To the east of Shatur, the thaloren main city, lies a dark part of the wood, ever since the spellblaze this area has grown corrupt, the wildlife there has been transformed.

After days of travel, you have found norgos lair and entered it. What will you find there...?
Try this instead:

Code: Select all

You have come to the western side of the Thaloren forest, to the lair of Norgos. Norgos was a steadfast ally of the Thaloren, protecting the western border. But lately he has grown corrupt, even attacking the Thaloren.
To the east of Shatur, the Thaloren Capital, lies a dark part of the woods. Ever since the Spellblaze this area has been corrupted. The wildlife there has been transformed.

After days of travel, you have found Norgos' Lair and entered it. What will you find there...?
4) I think you missed one of my previous typo reports. Line 164 of class/interface/TooltipsData.lua currently reads:

Code: Select all

Willpower defines your character's ability to concentrate. It increases your mana, stamina and psi capacity, and your chance to your chance to save against magical and mental effects.
Note that "your chance to" is accidentally repeated twice. It should instead read:

Code: Select all

Willpower defines your character's ability to concentrate. It increases your mana, stamina and psi capacity, and your chance to save against magical and mental effects.
Cheers,

-- The Haen.

The grammar in the Molten Skin description is pretty bad, lots of typos.

"Turns the golems skin into molten rock. The heat generated sets ablaze all inside a radius of 3 for doing 11.11 fire damage in 3 turns for 6 turns.
Burning is cumulative, the longer they stay in they higher the fire damage they take.
In addition the golem gains 35% fire resistance.
Molten Skin damage will not affect the golem's master.
The damage and resistance will increase with the magic stat."

The description of the Orc Greatmother says that she is "a tremendous form almost the size of the dragon", but in the game she's size Medium.

Well I'd say that's a bug, not a typo ;) I imagine all the mothers should be of large size.

Hrm, has Shockbolt done tiles for ladies yet? Cause I can imagine they could really put you off your dinner...

The racial description of skeletons states they have "amour." Cute.

Ego prefix for wizard hat should be "defender's", not "defender."

Actually there is a "defender's" ego type for metal helmets, and a "defender" ego type for wizard hats. And the two have nothing in common.
